‘Batman # 8’ review

Posted on

In which Batman finally acts like Batman. Full disclosure: I haven’t been nearly as enamored of Scott Snyder’s Court of Owls storyline as most of the rest of the world has. I love Snyder as a writer, and his craft has been rock-solid throughout, but up till now, I haven’t felt that Batman reacted to […]

A lot of that excitement has worn off, though, at least around Ground […]

‘Justice League Dark # 7’ review

Posted on

Last September, there was one book that more people around Ground Zero were talking about and anticipating more than any other, and that was Justice League Dark. Arguably the best concept to come out of the New 52, it unfortunately lacked somewhat when it came to follow-through. While very much a solid book, with some […]

‘Superman # 7’ review

Posted on

One of the most contentious points of the entire relaunch thus far has been the induction of Wildstorm characters into the mainstream DC milieu. While some have embraced it as another step in DC’s longstanding tradition of taking abandoned characters and giving them a shiny new coat of paint and a good home, others have […]
